W530 - can't change brightness.

Just installed fresh with all the drivers installed manually company win8 of lenovo supportpages.

Using discrete videomode from the bios, and I can't change the brightness of the screen. No keyboard, no mobility Centre or power options. Whats up with that? has worked in win7 on the same computer.

Does anyone have a solution for this? I don't want to run in optimus mode, do not ask... driver problem? WIN8 question? What's the deal? Difficulty please, id hate to reinstall my computer to win7 yet spend the whole day the customization of this platform.

Thank you! Help, please!

  • Satellite U400 - can't change brightness after reconstruction

    Had a problem with my laptop in December, which gave rise to a new backlight and Ribbon being installed on the back. Wouldn't power for me after that so I had to me TI usinf rebuilt recovery disks :-(

    Since then, although everything seems to work fine I can't adjust the brightness of the display. FN F6/F7 does nothing - even if the bar goes up and down that the brightness of the display does not change. Have been in the power management options, and once again although I can change the settings it the display does not change. I set at full intensity when the power and about 25 percent when it is on laptop battery, but there is no difference, no matter what source of energy that I use.

    > FN F6/F7 does nothing - even if the bar goes up and down that the brightness of the display does not change

    If you see the bar moving left and right using the FN or FN + F6, F7 then this means that the executed software ok and has been installed properly.

    Maybe the problem is not related to the software, but the parts that have been replaced by ASP. As you said the backlight and reversed tape have been replaced and I think something can go wrong when replacing.
    Maybe the technician made a mistake

    But please check it;
    Need BIOS and the BIOS by default.
    Save the changes and restart the device.
    Then try again to change the brightness.
    If you do not succeed, then I recommend requesting the ASP to check this

  • Satellite Pro 440cdx - how can I change the brightness or contrast

    My screen is weak and hard to see objects on the screen, any advice will be more welcome.many thanks for any help.

    Hello

    The brightness of the display can be changed by pressing the FN or FN + F6, F7 key combination.
    The contrast could not be changed on the screens of laptops that it is set automatically.

    But if it of very difficult to see anything on the screen, then an FL inverter may default.
    The fl inverter is a small part that controls the brightness of the display.
    Maybe it s need to be replaced.

  • Satellite L50 - B - 12 G - can't change the brightness of the display

    Hi people,

    For some reason that I can't find out, since yesterday I can not change the brightness on my deskop.
    It's a Satelite L50 - B - 12 G with Windows 8.1, 64 bit.

    (F2 and F3) function key does not move the scroll bar, and when I try the same thing on the control panel is like this:
    It is not simply to change the brightness

    At the same time, when I'm with an open office document or on a web page, don's work the cursor as usual... it is slower to move from one cell to another cell in Excel for example.
    The sane is to arrive with the page down key.

    Can anyone help on this? It becomes very annoying.

    Best regards
    Jose

    How did you try to increase or decrease the brightness of the screen?
    Did you press the FN key also?

    Well, as you said the F2 and F3 keys increases or decreases the brightness of the display
    The extra pressure of the FN button depends on the key mode feature which is located in:
    Office Assist-> tools & utilities-> Control Panel-> keyboard

    Permit special mode button allows you to use special features without pressing the FN key.

    That's why I recommend that you check this setting!

    just installed windows 7 64 bit on my SL500. previously, I had vista 32-bit home.

    granted, everything works, but I can't change the brightness. its default value (which is 85% I think)

    also, the sound is not loud enough.

    any ideas people?

    Thank you

    I'm sorry that this driver has not worked.

    The pilot I posted should be only for laptops with the series 7 Intel chipsets.

    I guess W8.1 is not in charge of your model.

    You can see if this W8 driver works, but I think that nothing is going to work for this model.
